Risk management in DOE is incorporated in
new, large cross-cutting program  NRAP
•
•
•
Science-based predictions for quantitative risk assessment are based on models.
Models need calibration, validation, and need to be appropriately applied in order to be useful.
Model parameters used to assign risk are ideally based on first principles, eg., understanding of the
fundamental processes or their proxies –> robust, portable, reliable models, reduce their own uncertainty
The success of the Monitoring
and Rapid Response Plan
developed for the Wellington
Project is based on prioritizing
the monitoring technologies:
Hall Plot
1) Reliability of the data and
approaches used to analyze
the data,
2) Frequency that the data is
acquired during injection
3) Sensitivity and precision of the
monitoring method and its
ability to detect small changes
in CO2 plume behavior;
4) Location and therefore
resolution from which the data
is collected,
5) Spatial resolution and
coverage of the CO2 plume;
and
6) Ability to detect movement out
of the injection zone both
above and below the injection
zone.

Benefits to the Program
•
Program goals being addressed –
– Demonstrate that 99 percent permanence of injected CO2
• ~26,300 tonnes of CO2 in each –
 1. (2015) Late Mississippian siliceous dolomite reservoir
deposited on a marine shelf to shelf edge ramp (Class II UIC permit)
 2. (2016) Underlying Lower Ordovician Arbuckle Group dolomitic saline aquifer
deposited on marine shelf (Class VI UIC permit)
– Demonstrate reliable and cost effective MVA (monitoring, verification, and accounting) tools and
techniques

Readiness to test monitoring technologies in BP2
 field deployment began in August 2014
1) Shallow water well monitoring
2) 18- seismometer array for passive seismic
monitoring
3) cGPS and InSAR surface deformation to monitor
pressure changes in reservoir during CO2 injection
4) Monitoring wells in underpressured
Mississippian reservoir overlying the caprock
5) High resolution 2D seismic survey to verify any
leakage through the caprock (baseline in late
August 2015)
6) Engineering analysis of CO2 injection
performance
7) Use Mississippian CO2-EOR as dress rehearsal
for the Class VI injection

The success of the Monitoring
and Rapid Response Plan to
provide early warning is based
on prioritizing the monitoring
technologies by establishing:
Hall Plot
1) reliability of the data and
approaches used to analyze
the data,
2) frequency that the data is
acquired during injection
3) sensitivity and precision of the
monitoring method and its
ability to detect small changes
in CO2 plume behavior;
4) location and therefore
resolution from which the data
is collected,
5) spatial resolution and
coverage of the CO2 plume;
and
6) ability to detect movement out
of the injection zone both
above and below the injection
zone.
